Guidelines for opening of school due to corona virus—
More than 60,000 infection cases are reported every day in the country. Meanwhile, some media reports have recently claimed that schools may open in a phased manner from September 1. However, no guidelines have been issued by the government so far.
But if such a decision is made, what will be the danger of opening a school at this moment, and will these steps work to further increase the outbreak of the corona virus.
How dangerous is the corona virus for children?
This virus has a very low risk of children falling ill.
Adults, especially older people, are at greater risk of being seriously ill and losing their lives due to complications.
Paediatrician Dr Ravi Malik told BBC Hindi, " "This disease does not bother children too much. However, in some cases, it has proved to be dangerous and children have also died. But such cases are very rare.0 "
He said that the disease was broadly used for children. "Etitude is quite protective0 Has been. According to Dr. Ravi Malik, only 2% of people worldwide are affected by the disease, who are under the age of 18. As a way, this is almost the case in India.
So what schools can open—
Dr. Ravi Malik says that the right time to open schools in India is not yet.
However, he says that if the school is considered to be opened, then "It depends on which corner of India schools are open. Where cases are low at the moment, you can think of opening schools, but in places with high cases like Delhi, Maharashtra, Gujarat, Tamil Nadu, 1 September will be too early to open schools.0 "
Most parents are still not in favour of opening schools. Recently, an online survey was conducted by the local circle organisation, which received more than 25,000 responses from parents and grandparents from different parts of India. 58% of people said they didn't want to open school now.
When the survey asked people, why do they think that schools should not be opened now? 47% of people have given some such reasons – they don't want to put their children at risk, if children get an infection at home, there can be a serious risk to the elderly, social dissing will be difficult at school. In addition, some people feel that opening of schools will spread the Covid-19 more quickly.
Though the Union Hrd Ministry had talked about reducing school hours a few days ago, most of the people are not in favour of opening schools at the moment.
Dipa Bisht, who lives in Delhi, has a son of sixth and the other in class I. He says that if children go to school, they have to meet each other, play. The number of teachers strictly following social dissonance, but how much masks they will wear, how much distance they will keep, the people are concerned about it.
How accurate the fear of the family—
Plans to bring back most children to school in the UK are also being considered. Adilia Waris, a child infectious disease specialist at the University of Exeter in britain, says that in children 0 "The slight effect of the disease against adults is 0 Cases of deaths of children from corona and corona are also rare.
However, in countries such as britain and the United States, there were some cases where children had rare inflammatory syndrome associated with corona virus. But even a handful of children were in a serious condition that some needed ventilators.
The reason behind this was also attributed to the delay in immune response to the virus, something similar to kawasaki disease. Scientists are trying to find out why these cases have delayed immune response to the corona virus.
What can be corona virus in others from children.—
It is not yet clearly known how much a person with mild or no symptoms, irrespective of age, can spread the corona. To understand this, we need to do large-scale antibody tests to find out which viruses were exposed to the entire population, and also to find out how these viruses reached them.
However, the UK government's Scientific Advisory Group for Emergency (SEZ) has said that some of such, however, are not fully fully used. "Limited0 There has been evidence that children are less likely to spread the virus than adults. That is, there is a low probability that children can get viruses in others.
The basis of such evidence has been somewhat designed in countries where schools have opened. Data shows that the school opening move did not play a significant role in community transmission.
However, a study in Schengen, China, in early 2020 said that children are at the same risk of being affected by corona viruses. The study also raised concerns that children could spread the virus to others without any symptoms. But subsequent studies have seen little of such concerns.
Clusters of infections found in some families in China were studied, based on contract tracing. This showed that in no case the infection spread from children.
A cluster was studied in the French Alps. It showed that a corona positive child had been exposed to more than 100 people, but not even one of them had a virus.
A team of reservies from around the world reviewed the evidence and found: "The role of children in transmission is not clear, but consistent evidence shows that children are less likely to be affected by infection, and at least that children are brought into the infection home.0 "
A theory says that children generally have no symptoms or mild symptoms that have fewer receptors in their lungs, which use to infect corona cells. But experts say there is no conclusive evidence that supports this theory.
In an interview to The Times of India, World Health Organization chief scientist Soumya Swaminathan said that reopening of schools should be a big priority. He said that unless the vaccine comes in, countries should test more and isolate the covid-19 patients.
He says countries should open schools back so that children's education and over-all health are not affected. However, Soumya Swaminathan emphasized that the administration has to ensure that there is sanitization in schools and social dissing is followed in schools.
Dr. Ravi Malik also says that it has to be very careful to open schools.
He says, "0 "Whenever we open schools, we have to train teachers well, take care of social dissing, the class in which the first 50 children sat, maybe now sit there at 20. They have to be seated away. They have to be clothed with proper masks and all the safety items. Sanitizers should be fitted outside the classroom. Drinking water should have a sanitize. There should be hand sanitizer everywhere and teachers should also know what to do if the child is sick.0 "
However, there are questions about the frequent hand washing facilities in rural zone and urban slum schools with water scarcity.
